本期我們來看全球化類話題
Some people think giving aid to poorer countries brings more negatives than positives.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
(一些人認為援助貧窮國家的消極影響多于積極影響。你在多大程度上贊同或不贊同?)
先來個頭腦風暴,have a try~問題:援助貧窮國家的消極影響和積極影響,你可以給出哪些觀點?
(開頭段)
【背景信息】When rich countries started giving aid to poorer countries around the 1960s, it seemed beyond the question that this would be helpful; it was just a question of who to give to and how much. Fast forward to today, however, there is a growing belief that such aid isn t just ineffective, but is actually harmful to the recipients. This is of course strongly disputed by aid agencies and charities.
參考譯文:當富裕國在二十世紀60年代左右開始向較貧窮的國家提供援助時,似乎不僅僅是‘這將會是有幫助的’問題,這是一個向誰提供援助和給予多少援助的問題。然而,快速發展到今天,人們越來越相信這種援助不僅是無效的,而且實際上對受援國有害。這當然受到援助機構和慈善機構的強烈質疑。
【語料積累】Fast forward to today快速發展到今天
段落二(主體段一)
【援助積極影響】①Such groups point to countless examples of where aid has irrefutably brought real, tangible benefits to people in great need. Africa is full of villages that now have clean water wells, built with aid money, when previously villagers got sick drinking filthy water. Perhaps millions of lives have been saved through food aid in countries suffering from famine, and foreign aid money has built high quality hospitals in places that lacked even the most rudimentary of health care. There are simply so many of such examples that it seems odd to some that anyone would even question the benefit of aid.
參考譯文:這些團體指出無數例子,表明援助無可辯駁地給急需援助的人帶來真正、切實的利益。非洲到處都是村莊,現在有用援助資金建造的干凈水井,而之前村民生病時喝非飲用水。在遭受饑荒的國家,也許通過糧食援助拯救了數百萬人的生命,并且國際援助資金已經在缺乏最基本醫療保障的地方建立了高品質醫院。有這么多此例子,以至于‘任何人都會質疑援助的好處’這個情況對一些人來說似乎很奇怪。
【語料積累】people in great need急需援助的人
【語料積累】filthy water臟水,filthy也可表示惡劣的,比如filthy weather
【語料積累】rudimentary初步的/基本的
【語料積累】question作動詞表示質疑
(結尾段:總結)
【消極多于積極】Although aid has often had great success at a micro level, it has had much fewer wider successes. Foreign aid to poor countries can in truth often be more of a hindrance, weakening countries in the long term by disrupting the local economy and disincentivizing responsible governance.
參考譯文:雖然援助往往在微觀層面取得巨大成功,但更廣泛的成功卻少得多。對貧窮國家的國際援助實際上往往更多地是一種阻礙,從長遠來看,通過破壞當地經濟和抑制負責的治理,削弱了國家政權的實力。
【語料積累】be more of a hindrance更多地是一種阻礙
綜上所述,范文的結構是:開頭段(背景信息)+主體段一(積極影響=生活保障)+主體段二(消極影響=擾亂經濟+政治削弱)+ 結尾段(消極多于積極),這也是觀點類寫作的作文結構。
在線回復關鍵詞“雅思口語題庫”,領取2021年新版雅思口語話題+新題參考范文,畢竟每次換題,全新題只占10%,舊題回庫+舊題改編(即舊題穿新衣)占20%-30%,而有60%-70%都是上季度保留題。所以抽中的幾率也是很大哦,大家可以好好先好好準備~
最后,看你是否能更自信地頭腦風暴,用上今日所學,試一試:援助貧窮國家的消極影響和積極影響(平時寫作過程中,多用新積累的觀點替換自己已有的觀點,鞏固吸收)今天的講解就到這里,希望能夠啟發你對國際援助積極影響和消極影響的思考~
